Business License Necessary for Flip/Rental LLC Biz?

[Greg D.]

I formed an LLC in Washington State, used the UBI I received to obtain an EIN and am now wondering if I need to also file for a business license too. According to these general LLC startup guides, you do, but I do not and will not have a store front. So is the business license really necessary?

I also went through the motions of registering for one online to see what questions were asked and noticed that, because my registered agent is located in Tacoma, (using that address to continue my anonymity) it was suggesting I also register in the city where my home office is located and where I will actually be conducting most of my business from.

Just looking for some guidance on the subject and appreciate any insights you have.

Thanks in advance!
